HOW MUCH DID 1T RAIN?

The publisher of the Sentinel has taken
measurements of the rainfall of this re-
gion for the past three years, using a L.
S. signal service rain guage, such as is
used at all signal stations, and for the
greater part Of the time has kept careful
| records of all precipitation, winter and
summer. Among other interesting things
| developed by these observations, one of the
most prominent has been the popular over
estimate of rainfall After good, heavy
| shower some one asks, ''What was the
| rainfall?" On receiving the reply, Zone
fourth of an inch" the almost invariable
exclamation will be, "Is that air. A good
| soaking rain falls over night and the in
| quirer on being informed the next day
| that it amounted to but little more than an
| inch gives vent to the same exclamation,
with disappointment plainly depicted Of
| ted times rains are heraled abroad through
| the papers as -four inches or even. ''siX
inches, when the precipitation was in re
| ality less than two or three A four inch
rain is a rare thing, and no single rain in
this region in the past three years has
amounted to six inches, and there have
| been some heavy ones. The fauld does
not lie with the rain, but with the general
impression Of what constitutes "goOd
rain. % A single inch of rain means ~, 154
gallons of water to the acre, or a
little more than eight hundred and
sixty two barrels. That is. in an inch of
rainfall, about 215 barrels of water are
poured out upon the space of Garden City
residence lot. If anybody thinks an inch
of rainfall is light" rain, let him try
pumping that amount for single lot once.
and see if he does not think tenth of an
inch is plenty for "a single shower. In
fact. tenth of an inch means over forty
three hogshead of water to each acre of
ground and makes good, invigorating,
crop growing rain.-Garden City Sentinel

Our city, though enjoying no boom. is
steadily working its way upward toward a
beautiful and substantial city of the second

rise rapidly and give us boom with good
location, mineral springs and fine farming

found in lack of united effort. Like all

WICHITA WOMEN.

A correspondent of the Leavenworth
Times from Wichita, presumably a
woman, writes that paper statement of
the woman voters of this city at the last
election, declaring among other things:
''There is good cause to expect the NUM-
cipal affairs Of Wichita to be wholly in the
grasp of its women, inside of a half dozen
years, if the present lack of interest on the
part of men citizens continues, many OF
the best men being too engrossed in busl-
ness TO even register. When women are
more experienced and really aroused to the
best interest of humanity the baser element
of orr city iii bic away to new fields,
where the refined influence Of the mother
and the home are unknown.
The desire is no doubt the mother Of tho
expression. The EAGLE comedies that
there are few women IN Wichita who are
longing to grasp its affairs, and they don't
want to wait q half dozen years either-but
the number Of such women is limited.
The Times correspondent says that the
men are "too engrossed in business" We
might remark that the only women
that the EAGLE would be will
ing to intrust the affairs of the city to
are just as greatly engrossed in their re-
spective spheres as the men are in theirs,
and that we would as soon turn over the
affairs of Wichita to the men who have no
business, l. e., loafers, as to turn them over
to the women who claim to have so much
time and such desire to run things.
The Times correspondent entertains a
queer notion as how the women could dis
pose of the unfortunate, whom she de-
dominates the chaser element" of the
community. She would send them all
whooping to those ''new fields where the
refined influence of the mother and the
home are unknown" meaning by that, We
suppose, the region prepared for the devil
and his angels.
We will wager nickle, yes two of them
that the party who wrote that communice
ton is not only woman, but that she is
one who is not too engrossed" in her par
ticular home, that she registered and voted
last spring. and that she is crank of the
like of whom, if the world was filled, there
would be no living in it. We will wager
another nickle, and our last one, that she
and her crowd will not be grasping the
public affairs of Wichita to any alarming
extent in six years nor in forty.
OF Wichita's four thousand women less
than four hundred of them ignored their
spheres by voting at the last election, and
the writer to the Times represents not even
one half of that four hundred.

WICHITA AND EMPORIA.

The Emporia Republican contains col
umn account of the ball game between the
Wichita and Emporia clubs, in which
Wichita done up Emporia about two to
every other field. The Republican growls
at the umpire, who was Wichita man.
but the defeated side always have, must
have, an excuse. OF course our boys eX-
pected to beat Emporia; that's what they
went up there for, but we are inclined to
the opinion that they would have beaten
them Just the same .o , ,,,. been an
ump.le within thousand miles. I'M
pires are no great shakes after all. They
never do anything but sit around and
howl and they are just as liable to guess
right as wrong. OF course to have the
dead sure thing on a game, the winning
club must choose the umpire. Wichita
always does that, at her horse races and
other contests, and of course will do so
with her base ball. An umpire is kink
of a upreme court who has the last whack
at the thing We have played umpire for
Wichita lots of times and we always make
it a rule to bring Wichita out ahead. 1t
makes our fellows feel good, and of
course we have no interest In the other
fellows feelings. These hints are thrown
out for the benefit of our neighbor, the
Republican, TO the end that he may learn
how to take joke.
